State standards and learning objectives are foundational to a successful lesson. For students to grow and learn according to state expectations, teachers must accurately align instruction to the state standards. State standards are the big picture and learning objectives are the puzzle pieces that make up the standard. While some state standards are straightforward and can be taught in a single lesson, others must be broken down into multiple learning objectives to be taught over several lessons.
Complete the “Learning Objectives Practice” template to practice writing learning objectives aligned to Arizona state standards for different grade levels and to plan aligned instruction.
Part 1: Writing Learning Objectives
Write a concise learning objective based on each of the given state standards. Then in 50-100 words, provide a rationale for how each learning objective aligns with the state standard.
Part 2: Aligning Instruction
Research the English Language Arts (ELA) or math standards for the state in Mississippi. Select a single standard for a grade level you plan to teach. Write a concise learning objective aligned to your selected standard, then provide a rationale for alignment.
In 100-150 words, write a lesson summary of how you would teach the lesson. Include the following:
· Brief introductory activity to capture the students’ interest/attention at the beginning of the lesson.
· At least one instructional activity that aligns with the learning objective.
· Closing activity to summarize the content of the lesson.
Note: The selected grade level, ELA or math standard, and learning objective will be used throughout the rest of the assignments in this course.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
